EzineArticles & The 4th of July!

    OK, ran a test experiment with EzineArticles. The 4th of July weekend is here and I wanted to see if I could get articles sitting on the front page throughout the weekend. I wrote a batch of articles last night and they are just getting accepted (12:30pm pacific) so I hope that can help with traffic. I will let you know!

    I considered that, but I want them to have a shelf life beyond this weekend.

    Really, really, really, really, and oh yea, really, bad! :(

    A ton of views on articles, a ton of clicks to my landing page, not one freaking sale!

    Last week I got 4 sales out of 40 hops in a day!

    Again, the inconsistency with this business is enough to drive a sane man crazy!

    Maybe your landing page is not good enough?

    alot of people saw significant drops. Me? I actually saw an increase in conversions. Kind of weird.

    Hopefully I start making even more sales!

    I'll do some experimenting to test and see if this is the problem. I've been tweaking my landing page everyday to see if there would be any changes in conversions...so far...nada.

    I'll figure this whole thing out....hopefully sooner than later! :D

    Crappy weekend overall. My articles generated a huge amount of traffic throughout the weekend. What normally would have felt like a good sales weekend, ended up sucking. Sold one item on 4th of all things. The rest of the weekend was dead. It could be the holiday weekend or it could be this economy, or maybe a combo of both but overall.....yuck. :(
